Chelsea v Shakhtar Live

by Timothy Masters

Chelsea take on Shakhtar on Wednesday 7th November, 2012, with kickoff at 19:45. This match is currently being shown LIVE on Sky Sports 3.

When Shakhtar were drawn with Chelsea ad Juventus in the Champions League group stages I’m not sure even the most loyal fan would have expected the side to be top of their table at the halfway stage, but this trip to Chelsea is untaken with the Ukrainian side three points clear at the head of group E. Roberto Di Matteo saw his side lose top spot in the Premier League on the weekend and will want a win tonight.

Chelsea will be favourites to get the win tonight, but their visitors are a good side and this won’t be easy for the Blues.
